your cpu is clearly struggling.
its STP is barely above 1000 where you would require around 1800-2000 for this game.;
try fiddling with speedhacks, but it's highly possible you'll have to keep playing it on your real PS2 for now

Dark cloud won't require 2000stp. Runs fine for the most part on my i5 4210U

EE cycle rate hack might be reasonably. MTVU maybe as well.
